selling your work in the shop

Interested in selling your work in the shop?

The Craft Council of BC’s Social Enterprise is always excited to welcome new BC-based, craft artists into the space! Being a part of the shop means that your work will be displayed in one of the busiest locations in Vancouver, you will be promoted on our social media channels, and will have access to support and mentorship within your medium.

Process

  1. To sell in CCBCC’s Shop and Gallery space, you must first become a member as a Professional Craft Artist, a Distanced Artist, part of a Priority Group, as a Senior, or through an Organization Membership. More information about becoming a member and membership benefits can be found here
  2. Next, artists will need to pass the Standards of Quality (SOQ) jury, which happens six times per year. The SOQ is an opportunity for CCBC members to have their work reviewed by an expert in their medium. This is an educational program offered by the CCBC to support members in their pursuit of creating professional contemporary craft. CCBC strives to maintain a standard of excellence in craftsmanship therefore passing the SOQ is the first step in being able to sell your work within any of CCBC’s retail opportunities. Please carefully read the SOQ guidelines and checklist before submitting your information.
  3. You are encouraged to email the shop staff at gi_shop[@]craftcouncilbc.ca to ask important questions related to the consigner agreement, the viability of your work selling in the shop, and any other important questions. 
We look forward to hearing from you!
